The master plan, with a vision for 2025, will help the zone develop by taking advantage of its geographical location, available landscapes and infrastructure.

The Chan May-Lang Co EZ lies between two major cities in the central region, namely Hue and Da Nang and boasts convenient road, railway, waterway and air transport services.

The zone is adjacent to Vietnam’s well-known natural and cultural heritage sites such as the former Hue imperial city, Hoi An ancient town and the My Son relics and it also serves as a gateway to the East Sea.

At the present, the EZ is home to various tourism projects, including the US$875 million Resort Laguna Hue.

In the first seven months of this year, it attracted seven projects with a combined investment of more than VND18 trillion, bringing the total number of projects to 30 in the zone, capitalised at nearly VND28 trillion.
